This template creates a clean, two-column article layout with sober colors.
=== The Malayalam DEFAULTSORT Problem ===


=== Layout Structure ===
`{{DEFAULTSORT:}}` does NOT work correctly with Malayalam (or any Unicode script that is non-Latin). MediaWiki's sort key mechanism only reads the first Unicode code point, which is why categories were showing only the first letter/character of the title.
* **Header**: Title only (no duplication)
* **Author Line**: Single line with author, date, category
* **Introduction**: Directly below author line
* **Two Columns**:
** Left: Main content with left-aligned Image1
** Right: Author infobox, highlights
* **Floating Key Points**: Appears in content as needed


=== Usage ===
=== The Fix ===
Used automatically by Form:Article.


=== Image Placement ===
Instead of using `DEFAULTSORT`, we now pass the sort key '''directly on each category link''' using the pipe syntax:
* **Image1**: Left-aligned at content start
* **Image2-3**: Can be placed manually in content or at end
* **Thumbnail**: Used for author photo in infobox


=== Manual Image Insertion ===
In the Content field, you can insert images anywhere:
<pre>
<pre>
Your text here...
[[Category:Articles|{{{DisplayTitle|{{{Title|}}}}}}]]
</pre>


[[File:ImageName.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Caption]]
This tells MediaWiki: "place this page in the category, and display it under the sort key equal to the DisplayTitle." Since MediaWiki renders the sort key as the display label in category listings, the full Malayalam title now appears correctly.


More text...
=== How it works ===


[[File:AnotherImage.png|thumb|left|350px|Another caption]]
{| class="wikitable"
</pre>
! Parameter !! Example value
|-
| Page name || <code>Something-In-The-Air</code>
|-
| DisplayTitle || <code>Something in the Air?</code>
|-
| Category shows || '''Something in the Air?''' ✓
|}


=== Font Detection ===
For Malayalam:
To check which font is rendering:
{| class="wikitable"
# Right-click on Malayalam text
! Parameter !! Example value
# Select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element"
|-
# Look for "Computed" tab
| Page name || <code>Kerala-Climate-Change</code>
# Find "font-family" - shows which font is actually being used
|-
| DisplayTitle || <code>കേരളത്തിലെ കാലാവസ്ഥാ വ്യതിയാനം</code>
|-
| Category shows || '''കേരളത്തിലെ കാലാവസ്ഥാ വ്യതിയാനം''' ✓
|}

Ver3: Fix for Category Display Names

The Malayalam DEFAULTSORT Problem

`` does NOT work correctly with Malayalam (or any Unicode script that is non-Latin). MediaWiki's sort key mechanism only reads the first Unicode code point, which is why categories were showing only the first letter/character of the title.

The Fix

Instead of using `DEFAULTSORT`, we now pass the sort key directly on each category link using the pipe syntax: 

[[Category:Articles|{{{DisplayTitle|{{{Title|}}}}}}]]

This tells MediaWiki: "place this page in the category, and display it under the sort key equal to the DisplayTitle." Since MediaWiki renders the sort key as the display label in category listings, the full Malayalam title now appears correctly.

How it works

Parameter Example value
Page name Something-In-The-Air
DisplayTitle Something in the Air?
Category shows Something in the Air? ✓

For Malayalam:

Parameter Example value
Page name Kerala-Climate-Change
DisplayTitle കേരളത്തിലെ കാലാവസ്ഥാ വ്യതിയാനം
Category shows കേരളത്തിലെ കാലാവസ്ഥാ വ്യതിയാനം ✓
